After battling their way through the nine regular-season games, a handful of local teams finished with six or more wins to earn an automatic berth into the postseason.

Here’s a look at which teams are in and where they’ll be going.

Division 2
After a season that included the Oakland Activities Association Blue Division championship, Birmingham Seaholm plays host to Oxford High at 7 p.m. Oct. 26.

The Maples come in at 8-1 overall and winners of six straight games. Oxford is 6-3, winning its last three games to earn the playoff bid.

On the other side of the district, Birmingham Brother Rice travels to Port Huron High at 7 p.m. Oct. 26. The Warriors and Port Huron are both 7-2, but Port Huron has more playoff points, thus giving them the home-field advantage.

Division 3
Bloomfield Hills Lahser has a date with a familiar foe. The Knights are traveling to OAA Blue rival Auburn Hills Avondale. Lahser comes in at 6-3 after losing two of its last three games, including a 37-20 defeat to Avondale in week eight. The Yellow Jackets are 8-1. Their only loss was against Seaholm.

The other side of the bracket features South Lyon East at 5-4, which earned a bid based on playoff points, and Catholic High School League champion Orchard Lake St. Mary’s. The Eaglets are 7-2.

Division 4
Beverly Hills Detroit Country Day is on the road, traveling to Clinton Township Clintondale at 7 p.m. Oct. 26.
